Injustice for the living. A reckoning for the dead. A bitter payment is overdue.
In the storm-battered New Mexico town of Benedición, three strangers discover that survival is not a matter of innocence - but of endurance.
An unnatural storm has swallowed the settlement whole. Floodwaters are rising. Escape routes are gone. And the law - what's left of it - has revealed its ugliest face.
Eli Mercer is only passing through. He's a man with a violent past and a new, unwanted gift: he can see the dead. He intends to stay just long enough to dry out.
Dr. Eleanor Carrow intends to save the man they're about to execute.
Don Santiago de Álvarez intends to survive - though he isn't certain he deserves to.
When the three are forced together inside Eleanor's besieged infirmary, the danger is more than human. Something dark and ancient has been watching Benedición for a long time. And beneath the floodwaters, beneath the mob, beneath the violence of a community eating itself alive - a bitter payment is coming due.
A Reckoning in Mercy blends classic frontier realism with supernatural dread - where the past is never truly forgiven, justice is never guaranteed, and the dead have been keeping score.
Perfect for readers of Dark Winds, Longmire, and Yellowstone - and for fans of atmospheric ghost stories, historical horror, and dark paranormal fiction where the land itself demands payment.
